FAQs for finding the right firearm for you
1. Centrefire vs. Rimfire
Centrefire: Suited for larger game due to its higher power and broader range. Its versatility and reloadable cartridges make it a preferred choice for serious hunters.
Rimfire: Ideal for small game and target shooting, rimfire ammunition is cost-effective and produces less recoil, making it perfect for beginners and seasoned shooters focusing on precision.
2. Air Rifles
Air rifles offer a unique blend of quiet operation and precision, making them excellent for small game hunting and pest control, minimizing disturbance to the surrounding environment.
3. Shotguns
From bird hunting to sporting clays, our shotguns provide unmatched versatility and reliability, ensuring that hunters can confidently pursue a wide range of game.
4. Action Types
Bolt Action: Renowned for its accuracy, the bolt action rifle is a staple for hunters requiring precision at long distances.
Lever Action: Offers rapid follow-up shots, making it ideal for hunting in dense vegetation.
Pump Action: A versatile choice, suitable for various hunting scenarios, including waterfowl and small game.
Lever Release: Combines the speed of semi-automatic with the control of a bolt action, providing a unique shooting experience.
5. Stock Material
Synthetic Stock: Offers durability and resistance to environmental conditions, ideal for rugged terrains.
Timber Stock: Provides a classic aesthetic and a natural feel, preferred by traditionalists.
Carbon Stock: Lightweight and strong, carbon stocks are for hunters who prioritize maneuverability and performance.
6. Barrel Considerations
Stainless Barrel: Best for corrosion resistance, suitable for humid or marine environments.
Blued Barrel: Offers a traditional look with moderate protection against elements.
Fluted Barrel: Reduces weight and enhances barrel cooling, suitable for extended use.
Cerakoted Barrel: Provides superior protection against wear and corrosion, ensuring longevity.
7. Barrel Twist
The twist rate of the barrel is crucial for stabilizing the bullet in flight, affecting accuracy over different distances and ammunition sizes.
Tailoring Your Firearm to Your Hunting Style
8. Back Country Hunting
Demands a rifle that can withstand the elements and offer reliable performance. A bolt action rifle with a carbon stock and fluted barrel ensures durability and ease of carry.
9. Varmint Hunting
Requires precision over longer distances. A centrefire rifle with a heavy, cerakoted barrel and a high twist rate provides the accuracy needed to target smaller game.
10. Spot and Stalk Hunting
A lightweight lever action or pump action firearm with a synthetic stock is ideal for the mobility and quick response needed in these scenarios.
